Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
- 3 pounds apples (mix of sweet & tart such as Gala and Grannie Smith)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 pinch nutmeg
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 2 thin lemon slices
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Steps
- Peel and core apples (you can leave the skin on if you like the texture).
- Cut apples into approximately 1 inch cubes.
- Add all ingredients to pot, and turn heat on high. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 20 minutes or until the apples have softened significantly.
- Stir frequently, making sure that the apples are not sticking to the bottom of the pot. Add more water if necessary. Remove lemon slices.
- Mash with a potato masher or use a food mill or food processor for a smoother consistency. Serve warm or at room temperature.
